Subject: Re: why is make so bloody slow (for me)
Date: Fri, 07 Apr 2000 13:18:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200004072018.NAA02902@ultra.franz.com> (raw)
A little more info. I executed the code in the $(shell ...) in a
bash, and it, too, was pretty slow. Just a few grep's and sed's.
Seems like the subprocess creation and waiting-for-termination is just
generally slower (on windows 2000, I'm guessing).
I'm running Windows 2000 on a PIII 700 with 256mb of PC100 ECC RAM.
It's not the machine, obviously. It's probably win2k, but I thought
I'd ask...
I'm running the V1.0 of cygwin.
The command "make --debug" gives this output:

There is a 10 second pause after each of the above 4 lines is
printed. The overall effect is that it takes a good minute or two to
get to doing some real work.
I upgraded my processor and NT (from 4.0sp6a) around the same time,
but I can swear it never was this slow.
I have a bunch of $(shell ...) in lines my makefile.
I have the environment variable MAKE_MODE set to UNIX.
Ideas?
